How did the Soviet state apply those policies to that group/institution, and what were the effects?
Gorbachev wanted a new union which he thought would be better for his society; however, his hopes were hit when the Congress of People’s Deputies dissolved itself. Even though Gorbachev and the representatives of eight republics signed an agreement in order to form a new economy, events were holding him to do so. In 1991, the Soviet Union collapsed during the latter part due to one republic after another declaring independence. This situation led Gorbachev to not be able to influence events outside of Moscow, and he was challenged by Yeltsin. Following the coup, Yeltsin suspended all CPSU activites on Russian territory leading to the Central Committee being closed. He also wanted the Russian Flag to be raised by the Soviet flag at the Kremlin. In 1991, Russia started to take over Kremlin. Gorbachev had a mark on his forehead which he wanted to keep because he thought it would get people to pay attention to how he looks rather than the issues that he has to solve. In 1980s, Soviet government printed his photograph for mass distribution.
What was the significance of Gorbachev’s reforms as it pertained to that group/institution? Basically when Gorbachev was reelected General Secretary, his position was not completely independent of the Soviet Government. Later on, Gorbachev reduced party power within the same month leading into a decree abolishing party control of all areas of the media as well as the broadcasting system. Within the same time, Gorbachev was working to merge his presidential position which culminated in the Supreme Soviet granting him special powers to rule by decree which later on making him pass a plan for transition to a market Economy. The Supreme Soviet did not agree on which program would be the best and Gorbahcev pressed on with political reform which was his proposal in order to set up the new Soviet Government with a Soviet of the Federation that consisted of representatives from all of the 15 republics passing through the Supreme Soviet Union.
